Ayesha Curry Divides Twitter After Debuting Blond Hair

Ayesha Curry, the wife of Steph Curry, always seems to be the subject of vitriol on social media and it’s extremely hard to understand why. For the most part, she is incredibly supportive of her husband and has many of her own successful ventures. Aside from her tweet from the 2016 NBA Finals, and her comments about male attention, Curry hasn’t exactly done anything to warrant the hate that is directed towards her. An example of the unnecessary hate towards her was when Twitter got upset at Curry for losing weight.

Now, Twitter is up and arms over a whole other reason. On Instagram recently, Curry showed off a new look that included blonde hair. Some are confused as to whether or not this was a wig or simply a filter, although it’s clear that the reactions on social media were a little exaggerated.

When the image was first posted, some felt as though Curry was unrecognizable and even thought that Steph was cheating on her with a white woman. These claims, as ridiculous as they were, got met with pushback from fans who noted that she looked great with her new do. Others offered support for Curry and questioned why everyone seems to hate on her all the time.

You can see the mixed reactions to her new look, below.

Billy Chuck Da Goat finds his flow on new release “Vibez”

Billy Chuck Da Goat’s latest release, “Vibez,” has a laid-back, hypnotic bounce that makes it easy to listen to without ever feeling empty. It makes a place where calmness and quiet confidence come together.

“Vibez” was made on purpose, but it also sounds simple. Billy Chuck’s smooth delivery flows through the production without rushing or pushing anything. Instead, he lets the rhythm breathe, allowing people to get into the song at their own pace. This laid-back energy is the best part of the song, nothing feels forced, which is exactly what it’s trying to do.

The track changes to fit whatever you need it for, like a late-night drive, a focused workout, or a way to unwind after a long day. It has a quiet edge of confidence, it’s not loud or bragging, but it’s steady and sure of itself.

François Marius and Bérénice creates a tender acoustic pop confession with “Billie Jean”

François Marius’ latest release, “Billie Jean (Acoustic Version),” cuts to the quick and lets raw emotion take over. What you get, ultimately, is a personal pop experience that feels closer to a secret than to either a spoken-word show or a performance. The initial soft strum of an acoustic guitar creates a mood that is soft, sweet, and quietly interesting. It’s a full-throated, backbones-out piece, and every note is screaming its potential. It’s simple but riveting, and it proves that sometimes less is more.

François Marius and Bérénice’s voices sound right together, their voicings intermingle so naturally that they seem accidental or spontaneous, harmonies that emerge from nowhere. The way they speak to one another is very, I mean, they really love each other. That even makes the track seem like a conversation about feelings.

The two artists are clearly close. Romance and Eros are not just ideas, and they inhabit every note that lingers and every minuscule shift in tonality. The harmonies soar effortlessly over the acoustic foundation, a blend of sweetness and strength. It’s a sign of strength and also of a willingness to be hurt.

“Billie Jean (Acoustic Version)” is stripped of any fancy production or theatrical effects, it wins you over with its frankness and forthrightness. Sandy François Marius’s impersonation is fresh and real, endowed with depth and softness thanks to Bérénice’s presence, which definitely makes everything more perfect. This acoustic performance serves as a stark reminder of the elements that do connect people: the singer, his guitar, and a story from the heart.
